Queuing with Enthusiasm: Wimbledon

Move over Spielberg.   After seeing this quality offering by yours truly, you will be out of a job for sure.

Jokes aside, and yes that was a joke, please excuse the quality and general badness of this little video.  Get the feeling I say that before every vlog?   I do have a fancy video header somewhere on this computer but I can't find it, which is fine as I can't remember what I was meant to do with it anyway.

And Mum yes I know a bit of makeup would have gone a long way, but look carefully and you can see the remnants of yesterday's mascara.  The sound on my computer still doesn't work, so I watched this on my phone.  And I have to ask - what's with the accent?  I sound like a posh Sydney schoolgirl.  That can't be right.

Anyway Wimbledon is under way and there is a real buzz around here.  The once-a-year taxi rank has sprung up outside our house, on the school run I walk past the officials in their green and purple fancy threads, and the queue is starting to fill up...



Hmmm that's a nice still shot the video has gone with.  I'm really thrilled with that.

Is anything exciting happening near you?

(By the way, if your kids are anything like my son and love Hot Wheels, you'll love our Mums Away UK competition. Mattel have very kindly given us 5 sets of Team Hot Wheels Double Dare Snare to give away each day until Friday.


How good is that?? To enter, all you have to do is "Like" our Facebook page and re-tweet us on Twitter (@MumsAwayUK). It's open to all and it's EASY.)

  7. Oh I will Ange. I'm planning something super stylish to give Pippa M a run for her money. Or maybe I'll just wear something clean.
